    Dihydromyrcenol CAS 18479-58-8

    Dihydromyrcenol CAS 18479-58-8 is a colorless, clear liquid that serves as a high-performance Cosmetic Raw Materials ingredient known for its powerful citrus-lime and fresh lavender olfactory profile. Within industrial aromatic production, this 2,6-dimethyl-7-octen-2-ol functions as a versatile fresh top-note agent and a high-stability fixative for alkaline environments. This dihydromyrcenyl alcohol is chemically robust, ensuring the integrity of the scent in heavy-duty detergents and soaps, while 7-octen-2-ol, 2,6-dimethyl- is frequently utilized as a core component in "fougere" and "cologne" type industrial formulations. The molecular structure of myrcenol dihydrate allows it to provide a clean, "sparkling" effect that is highly resistant to discoloration, making it a staple for large-scale manufacturing of transparent personal care gels. We provide bulk supply with competitive factory pricing for global distribution, ensuring every batch is verified with MSDS, TDS, COA and we offer customized specifications regarding purity levels to meet the exacting standards of international perfumery houses.

    Applications

    • Fine Fragrances: Used as a fresh top note in men’s colognes and unisex perfumes to provide a clean, modern citrus effect.
    • Soap and Detergent Perfumery: Heavily utilized in laundry detergents and bar soaps due to its exceptional stability in high-pH (alkaline) environments.
    • Personal Care Products: Incorporated into shower gels, shampoos, and deodorants for its refreshing scent and non-discoloring properties.
    • Industrial Cleaners: Applied in household cleaners to mask chemical odors and provide a long-lasting “freshness” sensation.

    Storage & Safety

    • Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse. Keep containers tightly sealed and away from heat, sparks, or open flames. Protect from light to prevent oxidation.
    • Safety Operations (PPE): Wear chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile), safety goggles, and protective clothing. Ensure adequate mechanical ventilation in the workspace.
    • Handling: Dihydromyrcenol is classified as a skin and eye irritant. Avoid direct contact and prolonged inhalation of concentrated vapors. Wash hands thoroughly after handling bulk materials.

    Quality Assurance

    Our production facility utilizes advanced fractional distillation and catalytic hydration of myrcene to ensure a high-purity product. Each production lot is analyzed via Gas Chromatography (GC) for impurity profiling and Refractometry to guarantee physical consistency. We strictly adhere to IFRA standards and provide comprehensive documentation to support B2B quality audits, ensuring our Dihydromyrcenol meets the rigorous safety and olfactory benchmarks of the global cosmetic industry.

    FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

    • Q:

      Is this product intended for direct consumer use or as an industrial formulation component?

      A: This material is supplied as a bulk industrial raw material intended for professional manufacturers. It is designed to be utilized as a fragrance component within a larger chemical formulation—such as a perfume concentrate, cosmetic emulsion, or detergent base—and is not intended for direct consumer application in its undiluted form.
    • Q:

      Why is Dihydromyrcenol commonly used as a replacement for Linalool in certain industrial applications?

      A: Dihydromyrcenol is typically applied as a more stable and cost-effective alternative to Linalool in functional perfumery. While it shares some lavender/citrus facets, Dihydromyrcenol offers superior performance in "harsh" bases (like bleach or high-caustic cleaners) and is less prone to the oxidation issues that can lead to skin sensitization in stored products.
